I can't listen to them anymore, mainly because I'm unable to focus on my work at the same time (ADHD).

The podcasts I used to listen to were (may have the name wrong) code heros by redhat, a greek mythology one, and the Nasa podcast.

I prefer script over unscripted personally.

I came from vscode and nano. I wanted something within the terminal as powerful as vscode. I tried doom emacs and vim but they didn't feel right.

Reasons I use it:

  • I found it easier to learn than vim/emacs in my opinion
  • Written in rust
  • Pretty easy to get language servers running
  • config is super easy

Finally coming around to using Linux. How's it on a tablet?

I've been messing with linux on my xps tablet. It mostly works well, I just hate the onscreen keyboards right now. Maliit lacks documentation and modifier buttons, squeekboard doesn't scale to larger screens unless you manually build a dev branch, and wvkbd doesn't hide/respond to input boxes.

As for UI, I love plasma mobile personally. For other touch friendly UIs theres: gnome mobile, phosh, and hyprland + gesture plugin.

Recommend me good e-reader

I own the Kobo Libra H2O and the Boox Air 2, both are amazing for different reasons.

Kobo is small and portable, fantastic for reading in bed.

Boox Air 2 has pen support and runs android. Fantastic for note taking, large PDF files, and so. It is a bit big at 7in screen, pretty much a tablet.

Do you practice martial arts?

I practice Northern Long Fist KungFu and Shaolin KungFu. I have also practiced Uechi-Ryū in the past.

I chose these styles because all have practical applications in combat and have been used for combat at one point during their existence. To me, this alone proves they're useful to learn.

I also spar and have applied what I've learned to matches. So I do believe these styles are worth looking into and learning.

To bring it back to your post. Self defence is great to know wherever you live, even if you'll never use it. Most teachers are very loud and use visuals for teaching, I don't think you'll have any issues.
